• 65C02 microprocessor runs at 8 MHz, delivering classic 6502 performance with modern tweaks. • 46 KB RAM and BASIC ROM provide a lightweight, retro computing environment. • 9″ display with built‑in font and simple graphics supports low‑res visuals. • Compact Flash storage and 10 000 mAh battery enable portable, long‑lasting use. • USB‑C charging, serial console, and single internal expansion slot add versatility. • Project hosted on GitHub, open‑hardware design invites community collaboration and hacking.
Article Summaries:
- Paula Maddox, TechPaula on GitHub, posts LT6502, a modern 6502 microprocessor-based laptop design. Yes, I know I’m crazy, but I figured why not. I’m enjoying working the PC6502 project but having a little tower of PCBs on the sofa isn’t the best. It’s very simple, these are the specs: 65C02 running at 8MHz 46K RAM BASIC in ROM 65C22 VIA (for timers and some IO) 9″ Display (with built in font/simple graphics) Built in keyboard Compact Flash for storage 10000mAh battery built in USBC powered/charged Serial Console 1 internal expansion slot Check out the project on GitHub .
